I asked ChatGPT to plan my fan convention trip — and it saved me hours
With Anime NYC right around the corner, I gave ChatGPT my favorite anime/manga and told it to build my Anime NYC 2026 timetable—and it laid it out perfectly.
I recently used ChatGPT to help plan my trip to the Anime NYC convention. This experience allowed me to save a significant amount of time, as the AI created a personalized itinerary for me. By providing the AI with a list of my favorite manga and anime series, along with the dates of my attendance, it generated a schedule that encompassed all the panels, screenings, and special events I should not miss.
Despite some anime/manga not having dedicated events at Anime NYC, ChatGPT still managed to include enough activities to keep me engaged throughout the weekend. The itinerary included events such as Kagurabachi: Anime World Tour premiere, Kaiju No. 8 special panel, My Hero Academia appearance by voice actor Yuki Kaji, Dragon Ball appearance by Daman Mills, Chainsaw Man appearances by Tomori Kusunoki and Casey Mongillo, Demon Slayer appearance by Bryce Papenbrook, Dan Da Dan appearance by Bryce Papenbrook, and Sailor Moon appearance by Stephanie Sheh.
While ChatGPT may not be able to secure me a spot in sold-out panels or reduce the time spent waiting for autographs, it certainly made the process of planning the convention much more efficient and enjoyable.
